What would be expected to happen if:
(a) `GA_(3)` is applied to rice seedlings
(b) Dividing cells stop differentiating
(c) A rotten fruit gets mixed with unripe fruits
(d) You forget to add cytokinin to the culture medium.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) If `GA_(3) ` is applied to rice seedlings, then the rice seedlings will exhibit internodeelongation and increase in height.
(b) If dividing cells stop differentiating, then the plant organs such as leaves and stem will not be formed. The mass of undifferentiated cell is called callus.
(c) If a rotten fruit gets mixed with unripe fruits, then the ethylene produced from the rotten fruits will hasten the ripening of the unripe fruits.
(d) If you forget to add cytokinin to the culture medium, then cell division, growth, and differentiation will not be observed.

Figure 6.36 shows a potentiometer with a cell of emf 2.0 V and internal resistance 0.4 Omega maintaining a potential drop across the resistor wire AB . A standard cell that maintains a constant emf of 1.02 V (for very moderate current up to emf mu A ) gives a balance point at 67.3 cm length of the wire. To ensure very low current is drawn the standard cell, a very high resistance of 600 k Omega is put in series with it, which is shorted close to the balance point. The standard cell is then replaced by a cell of unknown emf epsilon and the balance point found, similary, turns out to be at 82.3 cm length of the wire. a. What is the value of epsilon ? b.What purpose does the high resistance of 600 k Omega have? c. Is the balance point affected by this high resistance? d. Is the balance point affected by internal resistance of the driver cell? e. Would the method work in the above situation if the driver cell of the potentiometer had an emf of 1.0 V instead of 2.0 V ? f. Would the circuit work well for determining an extermely small emf, say of the order of a few mV (such as the typical emf of a thermocouple)? If not, how will you modify the circuit ?
